The Ideas Behind use-less-react Logo

The use-less-react logo is more than just a random graphic element; it is a visual representation of the philosophy of this library.

A Conceptual Tribute

The logo was designed to subtly yet effectively communicate our core value proposition: "The power of React, with less complexity."

1. Hexagonal Architecture: The primary outline is a well-defined hexagonal shape. This is a direct nod to the Hexagonal Architecture, the concept that primarily inspired use-less-react.

2. The React Logo: The logo's shape is conceptually designed to be inscribable within the original React logo. This establishes a visual connection, communicating that our library fits React, but trims the excess away.

3. The "Minus" Symbol at the Center (The "Less"): The central glyph, a circle bisected by a horizontal line, carries a dual meaning:

   • It references the heart of the state (the central circle in the React logo).
   • The cutting line is a "minus" in negative space.

Less is More

The design of the logo is an affirmation of simplicity: use-less-react removes the complications imposed by a contaminated MVVM architecture in favor of a cleaner, more consistent and flexible approach.

You achieve more expressive power with less code, less dependencies, and less architectural friction.

I also like to think it resembles the head of a bolt: simple, practical, no-nonsense, and indispensable for holding your architecture together!
